About this listen
Ben Marcus was having a rough day. His grandmother died, his ex-fiancee was trying to take his daughter away, the snow was coming down, and he was on his way back from Ohio.
Then something happened.
As he stops at a rest stop in northwest Ohio, the power goes out. Not just the lights, but the cars, phones, and everything else that made up everyday life. He has to get home, and he has no idea how to do it. Stuck in the snow amid a cataclysmic event that no one can precisely explain, he sets out to help not only himself, but those trapped with him. He has to find a way to travel the 300+ miles home, and he needs to do it fast. His family at home is saddled with problems of their own, and they have no way of knowing what has happened to him. As the world slowly spirals out of control, Ben must try to make it home...or die trying.
From the best-selling author of the Six Feet From Hell and Refuge from the Dead series comes a realistic take on TEOTWAWKI - the end of the world as we know it. No zombies this time, just pure survival.

Has great potential.
The story is good, the narration is also good.
My only complaint would be the length.
It is a short book.
Though saying that, it is a good base for an ongoing series.
Time will tell, i just hope the books are longer in the future.
As sub 7 hours does not cut value for money.

It's not just us that's going to be affected.
It starts with a death, long expected, of Benjamin's grandmother and her funeral, which reunites the family in snow bound Ohio and, for Ben, seven hours at least away from home. It was as the family members start their cold journeys home, an EMP stops everthing, including the cars. In a hosti!e environment, too col d to walk far, they have to find a way to survive.
This new first of series book essentially I introduces characters and sets the scene for future editions. Although enjoyable, there seemed to be little story yet presented and it was over before it had a chance to begin. It does concern me that everyone seems to have at least one gun wherever they might be and a readiness to use them at the slightest provocation. But perhaps that just because I'm a Brit.
A good introductory episode to the new series, excellently read by Andrew Wehrlen, who individually voices the characters as he reads the text, with understanding, at a good pace. So far, the storyline does not seem to be very different from other EMP books but it is fly days, with very little plot reveal beyond meeting the main protagonists who are trying to get home. My thanks to the rights holder of Divided, who, at my request via Audiobook Boom, freely gifted me with a complimentary copy. Worth giving it a try if post apocalyptic tales are your reading choice.

Great narration, didn't get in to the story though
I have read and enjoyed stories like this before but didn't really get into this one.
This first book seemed more like just the first couple of chapters, it was lacking a real story line (start, middle, end). It is obvious that this has been planned as a series of books from the outset and that may detract some quality from this book.
I have listened to the narrator before and thoroughly enjoy his work
